Looks like its at 11am in front of the House Chamber. Should be a small enough area for their 5-6 "Moms".

That's funny. They can probably all fit under one big umbrella or a tree.

It was the same old sour-faced group. I got called an a$$hole by one of them...fairly loudly. Believe me when I say that I wasn't behaving in even the most remotely a$$holish fashion.

I'd put money on it that the press gives them more coverage than the opposition.

Looked like a couple dozen at most from the Strib pics.

Depending on how many passersby stopped to listen -- it was the 12 regulars with about 6 hangers on. No new faces.

Is a "gun control supporter" similar to an "athletic supporter", but for guns?

Kinda, yeah, but the athletic supporters don't get as dirty and leave a better aroma.

Athletic supporters actually serve a purpose.

Gary Thompson is the one that got in my face and called me an a-hole. If I recall correctly, he did something similar to two other GOCRA folks earlier this spring too.
